Summary:Examples described herein relate to a device comprising a controller, a volatile memory device, and a non-volatile memory device. In some examples, the controller is to allocate an amount of the volatile memory device based on an amount of energy available to the device during a failure event. In some examples, the amount of energy available to the device during a failure event comprises watts over an amount of time. In some examples, the failure event comprises one or more of: power reduction, power loss, voltage reduction or loss, current reduction or loss, global reset, machine check, operating system (OS) failure or crash. In some examples, the allocated amount of the volatile memory device comprises a number of bytes. In some examples, the controller is to: indicate an amount of energy to copy data from the volatile memory device to the non-volatile memory device and receive an indication of the amount of energy available to the volatile memory device for a failure event.
